Average lifespan
A standard electric kettle lasts roughly 3 to 5 years with daily use. Premature failure is almost always due to severe scale buildup causing the heating element to burn out.
Error: Dry Boil Warning
The kettle's safety thermostat has tripped because the temperature rose too rapidly, indicating there is no water inside. Unplug and let cool completely before refilling.
Error: E1 Temperature Sensor
Digital kettles may display an E1 or similar code if the internal temperature probe fails or disconnects. The kettle will refuse to heat for safety reasons.
